THE MANITOBA COMPANY.
II Is Building Toward Butte and Wood
River at the Rate Of Four or Five
Niles Per Day, Notwithstanding the
Most Determined Opposition.


Niles Per Day, Notwithstanding the
Most Determined Opposition.
"There is one railway line about
which you do not say much. Mr..
TIMEs," said a prominent railroad
man, the other day, shut from which
you can expect speedier relief than
from any other. That is the Manitoba
road. The company which is build
ing it is composed of capitalists Of
Manitoba, Canada, and Great Britain,
and 3 strong syndicate of American
railway men stands ready to back it
whenever necessary. 1t is laying
four or FIVE miles of track per day,
and is thus doing the most rapid work
ever known. A combination of all
the elements opposed to the Canadian
Pacific Railway, it is so powerful that
even the Canadian government hest.
tates to oppose it openly. This is
evident from the acts Of its officials.
The Manitoba Legislature having
granted the new company the required
charters, they were disallowed by the
Canadian Parliament. But this only
had the effect of urging the builders
to greater exertions; and the Govern
ment, while controlled by the Cana.
dian Pacific, dares not interfere for
fear of melting a rebellion that would
result in annexation to the United
States; the Manitobans being unani.
nous in their detestation of the Cana
dian Pacific monopoly's extortions.
"rhis road is working at four or
Ave points, with well-rquipped par.
ties, and locating its main line be.
tween the Canadian Pacific and the
Northern Pacific railways, and making
complete profile maps of the country
on each side for hundreds of miles.
1t will soon be in Helena, Montana;
some time this winter it will get to
Butte; and by this time next year it
will not be far from its terminus on
the shores of the Pacific. But it will
not wait for its through line to be
completed before building its tribu-
tary branches. Feeders will be
pushed along with the main line-so
that when that is completed the Man
ltoba Railway Company will, with its
Eastern connections, have such sys.
tenn as will rival any already in exist.
ence.
"The main line will probably run
sufficiently near to the Cnur d'Alene
mines to tap that region, but branch
line will have to be made to Salmon
City and on to Wood River, to secure
the trade of this region. This the
company knows and intends to do
so that, within two years, you may
look for an Eastern connection from
Wood River direct to Butte, Chicago,
New York, and the balance of the
world"

SAUL OF TARsus,

George z. Weddings Lecture I'm the
College Course.
The Congregational church last even
ing furnished a large audience to listen
to the lecture delivered by George r.
Vending in the college course and the
usual appreciation was manifested.
The lecturer was introduced by
Colonel Hughes East, an old-time
friend. Mr.. Weddings subject was
Saul of Tarsus. the ST. Paul of new
testament history. Tt is o subject full
of interest in it's ordinary aulse, but pre-
sented by SO charming an orator and
clear q reasoner IS Mr.. Vending it be-
comes Immediately filed with new at
fractions and interest intensiies as the
wonderful story progresses. From Saul
of Tarsus, the pharisee sitting IN judg-
ment over Stephen, to Paul the apostle,
crowned in martyrdom over the bloody
block of stern Roman justice, Mi.
Vending carried his hearers through
as im%passioned a tale as ever fell from
human lips. If there was one part Of
the recital more thrilling than another it
was when Mr. Vending brought the
before Agrippa and repeated the
which almost persuaded the
pagan to become a christian. MI.
Vending possesses remarkable powers
of oratory and throughout his entire
discourse his audience sat under q spell
which was broken only. by his somewhat
conclusion-the "hail and fare
we'll" which closed the earthly career O
his subject. 1T was a lecture which gave
.lnbounded satisfaction and was adjndg-
I'D with one accord the best of the ex-
course with which Yankton has
favored this winter.

A RAILROAD BRIDGE.
Mr.. HUI OF the Manitoba,
interviewed on the
Subject.
He Says the Duluth Line Will Cross
the Missouri at this Point.

The following from the st. Paul Globe
OF the 10th, conveys important conirma'
ton of previous assurances:
Gen. John B, Dennis, deputy collecto,
of internal event Of south Dakota and
commander of the territorial militia
and William M. Powers, trustee of the
asylum for the insane, at Yankton, were
at the Merchants yesterday.
"We are here solely in the interest OF
Y%ankton," said Mr.. Powers last night.
1--WE came up to see Mr.. Hill, OF the
Manitoba road, prepared to offer him
inducements to extend his Duluth line
from its present terminus via Wilmar on
to Yankton. We had an interview with
Mr.. Hill to-day, and the result was more
than satisfactory. Mr.. Hill informed
US that it was the intention of
the company to push the road
through to Yankton by the way
of Sioux Falls, to cross the river there
and extend the road into Nebraska.
This is precisely what We want. It will
bring coal to us at about 81 a ton, and
give us q market at Duluth for our
grain. This will also direct the south
Dakota trade to the twin cities. MI.
Hill said that he knew it to be a fact
that no better place could be found for
crossing the river than at Yankton. All
the road asks is right of way, which can
easily be procured"
"Yes, | think there Will be considera-
BILE railroad building in Dakota. At
Yankton we already have the assurance
that the Illinois Central will penetrate
into the territory oy the way of Yank-
ton, and there will be an extension OF
the Gould system into the territory from
Omaha, also by the way of Yankton.
But the Duluth line is what we are
most anxious to get, as it will be Of the
most practical benefit to us. L am
certain, from what Mr.. Hill said to-day,
that We shall have 1t before snow flies
next fall"
